Sometimes when designing a room we decide to embrace a certain colour – this does not mean that we exclusively use items of this colour, it simply means that this colour will take centre stage. One common mistake in Design is the belief that if you chose an accent colour that all shades of this colour must match. In my opinion such a look gives an unnecessary impression of pre-meditation: Design should look natural and if blue is your colour always remember that different tones and shades of the colour can work together in stunning fashion!
